Environmental monitoring can include the collection of photos, videos and/or sound. It can also require complex analytical procedures for automatically extracting information from these complex forms of data.

Natural environments are monitored to understand processes such as growth or damage that might occur, and urban environments are monitored to understand safety, security, and efficient operation within such environments.

Insight provides services for the monitoring of natural and urban environments, and also provides training about environmental and civil engineering. Another branch of Insight (Insights in Engineering Data) provides data science services for the science and engineering sector.

Insight CEO, Dr Mark Griffin, is a member of the Gold Coast Committee for Engineers Australia.
